I was waiting at ticket counter at the Nungambakkam railway station, around 6:35 am today. There were few people standing at the only counter open.
As I stood away from the queue, waiting, a beautiful girl came and stood a few steps away from me. A guy came and met her and then he stood in the queue, bought the tickets and both of them left. A few minutes later, a guy with a cricket kit came and stood besides me. I guessed he was waiting for someone. My guess turned right, couple of guys dressed in white came. One of them stood in the queue, bought the tickets and all of them left for the platform.
Watching this from a distance, I could just smile. I looked at my watch. Even I was waiting. In the meantime there were others who came, stood in the queue and bought their tickets and left, without waiting.
Then all of a sudden, another guy on a phone caught my attention. He was desperately looking for someone while talking. The place was not crowded, so I could not figure out why he was not able to find the person. Then I saw a girl, rushing towards him and a few heated words were exchanged and then both left the place together. I just smiled, all that ends well is well. I was still waiting.
I looked at my watch again, it was 7 am now. At last, my wait was over. I could get my monthly train pass. I stood in the queue and bought my pass and left for the platform to board my train.
Of course, I was waiting for buying the pass. The guy at the counter said that I had to wait till 7 am. What else were you thinking, I was waiting for? :)
